W11-64LrC 14.5.1When I put a modification on the picture, the XMP file is not générated.In the catalog preferences, the "write automaticly..." is on, and the tag is not "in pause"Previously, it worked  and I have the XMP I have .DNG files (is it a problem with that ?)Thanks 

Here's the step by step:Open any image in develop.Go to effects and set the Post-Crop Vignetting to:Amount -100Feather 0everything else on default, this leaves the image with an obvious oval frame.Now go engage the crop tool and play with the angle slider or crop the image.The vignette is not updated until the mouse is released.Lightroom CC and ACR are interactive and the vignette updates as the crop changes.Everything is up to date, drive G is a NVMe on the motherboard and I've tried all the usual suggestions of resetting prefs, etc. This behaviour has been present since the October 2024 release.Lightroom Classic version: 14.5.1 [ 202508231203-c2638d01 ]License: Creative CloudLanguage setting: enOperating system: Windows 11 - Home Premium EditionVersion: 11.0.26200Application architecture: x64System architecture: x64Logical processor count: 24Processor speed: 4.7GHzSqLite Version: 3.36.0CPU Utilisation: 0.0%Power Source: Plugged InBuilt-in memory: 65156.2 MBDedicated GPU memory used b

Hello, all. I just bought a brand new Canon R6 Mk II. I've been on several shoots and I'm bothered my some anomaly on two of them. when I import photos into Lightroom classic the import goes well, all thumbnail previews look good. However, when I go to the develope tab, about one third of them show this: the file appears to be unsupported or damaged. the image can't be edited like this. There is nothing different about these files. They were all imported together from the same SD card. this is the second time this has happened. The loss of these images is devastating. What is going on? 

Hello community. I'm using Lightroom Classic 11.3.1 on an M1 Mac running Sequoia 15.6.1 Lightroom has been fine for approxximately 14 years but today I noticed I cannot edit photos in Develop mode for photos that are on an external HD.No 'Unlink Exclamation Marks' are visible.You can navigate to the photos using 'Show in Finder' so it definitely knows where they areSecurity permissions are open. 

I keep my photos on an external SSD (call it Prime) and my LrC catalog on my desktop internal SSD. I recently ran into a problem of wanting to add ~22,000 photos from several SD cards to my Prime, but there was not enough capacity left. I had to use Adobe Bridge to do initial culling for each SD card and could then get the remaining files (~13,000) to fit on Prime, so that I could import them into LrC. Shortly after, I found myself facing an unusual (for me) situation and was forced, for the first time, to deal with using the same catalog, and Prime, from two different computers. Without doing the proper amount of research (I was in a big hurry), I simply copied the entire Lightroom folder from my desktop to another exteranl SSD (call it Catalog) and could simply move the two SSD (Prime and Catalog from one system to the other. Worked just fine. I should say that what I actually did was copied the Lightroom folder from my desktop to Catalog, then used Prime and Catalog from a

either is a headache. i'm not feeling like diving into a new build right now so upgrade GPU is prefered for now. I have a 500W PSU and 2 available 6 pin PCIe connectors. I have an RTX 1650. Lr's Denoise takes about 1-2 minutes. I could upgrade to an RTX 3050 which is still 70W and can be powerd by the PCIe 3.0 slot. Without making any other changes, could anybody tell me what that would do for improving Lr's Denoise times?

It's been a while since I used Lr (like a year, and prior to that, many years), and when I opened LrC, there were a number of pop-ups and prompts that I can't remember what exactly they were or what order they were in, but I know there was one about a corrupt catalog, and a pop-up asking if I wanted to sync to the current catalog or another catalog, and I can't remember which one I selected because I was confused on what either of them were and what would happen if I selected one or the other. My current lrc catalog/library is completely empty, but I still have my thousands of photos in my lr cloud. I have new photos that I just took yesterday that I want to add to lrc and eventually sync to the cloud.  1) Do I have to sync my existing photos from the cloud to lrc and therefore downloading them to my computer, before importing new photos into my currently empty lrc if I want to sync the new photos to my cloud where all my other photos are?2) Will syncing from an almost empty

I use Lightroom V6.0 and have done for a few years and never had a problem, I use Windows 11 up to date. I updated Adobe Creative cloud this morning and now Lightroom tries to open and crashes immediately.  I have over a 1000 photos I need to edit quickly, any help appreciated.  I'm not particularly technically minded either.  Thanks   [Moved from ‘Bugs’ to ‘Discussions’ by moderator, according to forum rules.

When creating a vertical hdr panorama of 4 photo, each one of them composed by 5 photo in hdr, I've highlight blown even if the information are all there in the underexposed shots. It seems like lightroom, when clicking hdr panorama tries to uniform the shot by lifting the shadows and burning the highlights of the composed photo. I've already checked that when clicking hdr panorama the "automatic settings" is NOT selected. Attached you can find the result. I've also tried first to created the single hdr, and then creating the panorama but the results are the same...

When trying to edit an image from within Lightroom Classic to Photoshop 2025 I am getting this message:When i click on Learn More in the error message it is telling me to re-install Adobe Photoshop 2025.  How do I re-install it?

I started creating a book in the Book Module and before finishing clicked on Create A Saved Book.  The Book ("curated_bk_wc") was based on the Collection which is shown above it in the screenshot below, whch has a total of 311 photos.  At some point I got up to do something and when I came back to my computer, the Saved Book only had 33 photos in it (I am quite certain it was initially showing all of the photos in the Collection it was based upon).  The photos in the Saved Book are a mix of photos in the Book and others from the Collection not in the Book.  Why is the Saved Book showing this asssortment of photos and not some other and how can I add other photos not among the 33 in the Saved Book Collection but in the "all_photographs..." Collection it is based upon?  Thanks.  

Lightroom Classic v14.5.1 - I tried rolling back to v14.4 (as per some conversation threads on adobe forums), but still no change.  I have started noticing this behaviour for the last month or so now, where applying my presets (I even tried with a brand new preset), simply "applies" it to my photos, but until I manually Update AI settings, nothing really happens. Same behaviour even when I sync changes to other photos. Now if I could mass select and update AI settings consistently, I wouldn't mind. But even that does not seem to work all the time. I will noticed some photos don't have denoise applied, some don't have masks applied, and so on. And there is no clear indication from grid view on which photos have pending AI updates. It looks okay when I sync, but clicking on an individual photo reveals that either blur or masks or denoise hasn't applied correctly and I need to manually apply to each individual photo. Previously, I could apply my preset on a 5

LrC 14.5 on a PC.After physical move of four HDDs and pointing LR to the new locations all seemed well.  However, I just noticed that for one drive (G) only two folders are present out of 46.  No indication that the missing folders can't be found (i.e. no ? icon), just not showing the folders at all.  But folders and images are present on the HDD itself and viewable in Explorer.Going to backups after the move of the drives shows the same problem. Looking at a backup from before the move shows that G is supposedly empty of images according to LR.  Other drives show the expected folder structure and ? with each.  But for the G drive there is nothing for me to select and click on "find missing files or folders".Any ideas other than re-importing all the missing folders (using Add from current location)?  But then of course if I hadn't save metadata to the XMPs then that info is gone.I think all this happened around the time of the latest upgrade (I did it

I have created a Watermark for use in Lightroom. My problem is I can't find the orginal version to edit. When I open the Watermark Editor, it shows the watermark but is there any way to see either the file name I called it or the location?

I have  recently bought a new Mac Min M4, and want to run the standalone copy of LR on it which I bought. Is there a way to do this? I'm not interested in subscription plans.

Hallo!Diese Abfrage bekomme ich bei jedem Start, obwohl ich auf meinem Mac bei Datenschutz und Sicherheit bei Dateien und Ordnern alles freigeggeben habe: „Adobe Lightroom Classic.app“ möchte auf Daten aus anderen Apps zugreifen.nicht erlauben - erlauben Bug? Oder habe ich etwas übersehen?Das Programm selbst liegt auf der Festplatte des Mac Mini. Der Katalog liegt auf einer externen SSD. Die Bilder wiederum auf einer weiteren SSD.  Das Ganze nervt nur, wäre aber schön, es abzustellen!Schönes Wochenende! GrußSven 

Hej there Since today my Lightroom Classic seems to be stuck with the operation of exporting a picture from raw into png without any error or anything. The status bar is simply stuck at basically done. Yesterday I have done the exact same operation without any issues within a few seconds but today I noticed the images not popping up where I expected them to be and saw a few still running operations in Lightroom that for whatever reason would finish. Over the day I tried some stuff like rebooting Lightroom, rebooting the PC, different files, validating the original raw files are still where they should be, etc. but each time I try to export its just not happening. Do you guys have any idea what could help in that case? 

1. Disconnect from all internet2. Try to open Maps module3. Switch back to Loupe/Grid modules Result: error message is stuck on screen.  Won't go away until connecting or quitting Lighrroom. Expected: error message disappears after switching modules, pressing the Escape key, or something. I've seen two different messages.  One said: "Unable to connect to Adobe servers.  Map module will not work." (screenshot)  The other was much shorter, I don't recall exactly but it was to the effect of "Map not connected".  Both got stuck. I don't recall having this problem in the past, so possibly this a regression in 14.5.x or other recent-ish version. 

  How to edit portraits using people masking In addition to masking subjects, sky, and background, you can select and mask people in Lightroom Classic.   Now, you can make local adjustments to one or more people in a photo. The Select People mask even lets you edit specific parts of the body like skin, eyes, lips, teeth, and more!       ❶ Start with a portrait of a person or group.Portrait pictures with identifiable people & facial features work best & are suitable for detailed masks. ❷ Go to the Develop module Go to the Develop Module (D) > Press Shift +W (Mac/Win) or select the circular tool icon to reveal all the Masking tools.   ❸ Selecting People   Lightroom Classic will automatically detect all the people in the photo. You can select All People or the person in the image you want to make adjustments to & a Red overlay (by default; can be customized) will appear.     ❹ Selecting specific parts in People MaskOnce you've select
